Director’s Note:PREFACE
It is heartening that National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) has come out with renewed spirit to fine tune its process of assessment and accreditation. In sync with the local, regional and global dynamics of the higher education sector, the process, tools and methodology also need to be dynamic. Since July 2017, the NAAC has unfolded the new methodology and unveiled new process and instruments of assessment and accreditation. The main focus of the revision process has been to enhance the redeeming features of the accreditation process and make them more robust, objective, transparent and scalable as well as make it ICT enabled. It is further heartening to note that the ICT enabled new process has cut down the duration of the accreditation process considerably.
As always, the NAAC had to cater to the dynamic demands of the sector including that of the Health Sciences Universities and Colleges for a renewed manual that would take care of the discipline specific requirements. With the previous Health Sciences Manual forming the backdrop, the NAAC had to depend on the feedback of the stakeholders, outcome of the Pilot Study, inputs from the Expert Group Meetings, and come out with a comprehensive manual for Health Sciences institutions. The expert group comprising eminent academicians from the University and Colleges, domain experts and the NAAC experts have evolved a manual that is technology enabled and all encompassing. The Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) have to take cognizance of the new methodology and the Manual for their efforts in seeking accreditation.
It is hoped that the Manuals of Health Sciences for Universities and Colleges will help the HEIs to prepare for the revised process of Assessment and Accreditation.
In an effort to enhance the accountability in the entire process, the institutions as well as other stakeholders are required to keep track of the latest developments profiled on the website of the NAAC from time to time.
The Core Working Group and Sectoral Working Groups consisting of experts from the Health Sciences domain and the contribution of the officials of NAAC in the development of the manual would no doubt go a long way in making the entire process of A&A more effective and efficient. The services of all the experts are gratefully acknowledged.
I deem it a privilege to acknowledge the immense contribution made by Dr. Latha Pillai, Senior Adviser, NAAC and also Prof. H. K. Anantha Subba Rao, Academic Consultant, NAAC in the development of the Manuals for the A&A process of institutions of Health Sciences.

I. INTRODUCTIONIndia has one of the largest and diverse education systems in the world. Privatization,
widespread expansion, increased autonomy and introduction of Programmes in new and emerging areas have improved access to higher education. At the same time, it has also led to widespread concern on the quality and relevance of the higher education. To address these concerns, the National Policy on Education (NPE, 1986) and the Programme of Action (PoA, 1992) spelt out strategic plans for the policies and advocated the establishment of an independent National Accreditation Agency. Consequently, the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) was established in 1994 as an autonomous Institution of the University Grants Commission (UGC) with its Head Quarter in Bengaluru. The mandate of NAAC as reflected in its vision statement is in making quality assurance an integral part of the functioning of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs).
The NAAC functions through its General Council (GC) and Executive Committee (EC) comprising educational administrators, policy makers and senior academicians from a cross-section of Indian higher education system. The Chairperson of the UGC is the President of the GC of the NAAC and the Chairperson of the EC is an eminent academician nominated by the President of GC (NAAC). The Director is the academic and administrative head of NAAC and is the member-secretary of both the GC and the EC. In addition to the statutory bodies that steer its policies and core staff to support its activities, the NAAC is advised by the advisory and consultative committees constituted from time to time.
Vision and Mission
The vision of NAAC is:
To make quality the defining element of higher education in India through a combination of self and external quality evaluation, promotion and sustenance initiatives.
The mission statements of the NAAC aim at translating the NAAC’s vision into action plans and define NAAC’s engagement and endeavor as given below:
To arrange for periodic assessment and accreditation of Institutions of Higher Education or units thereof, or specific academic programmes or projects;
To stimulate the academic environment for promotion of quality in teaching-learning and research in Higher Education Institutions;
To encourage self-evaluation, accountability, autonomy and innovations in Higher Education; To undertake quality-related research studies, consultancy and training programmes, and To collaborate with other stakeholders of higher education for quality evaluation, promotion
and sustenance.
Striving to achieve its goals as guided by its vision and mission statements, NAAC primarily focuses on assessment of the quality of Higher Education Institutions in the country. The NAAC methodology for Assessment and Accreditation is very much similar to that followed by Quality Assurance (QA) agencies across the world and consists of self-assessment by the Institution along with external peer assessment organized by NAAC.
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 9
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
Core Values
Throughout the world, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) function in a dynamic environment. The need to expand the system of higher education, the impact of technology on the educational delivery, the increasing private participation in higher education and the impact of globalization (including liberal cross-border and trans-national educational imperatives), have necessitated marked changes in the Indian higher education system. These changes and the consequent shift in values have been taken into cognizance by NAAC while formulating the core values. Accordingly, in order to ensure external and internal validity and credibility, the QA process of NAAC is grounded within a value framework which is suitable and appropriate to the National context.
The accreditation framework of NAAC is thus based on five core values detailed below.
(i) Contributing to National Development
Most of the HEIs have a capacity to adapt to changes and at the same time, pursue the goals and objectives that they have set forth for themselves. Contributing to national development has always been an implicit goal of Indian HEIs. The role of HEIs is significant in human resource development and capacity building of individuals, to cater to the needs of the economy, society and the country as a whole, thereby, contributing to the development of the Nation. Serving the cause of social justice, ensuring equity and increasing access to higher education are a few ways by which HEIs can contribute to the national development. It is therefore appropriate that the Assessment and Accreditation (A&A) process of NAAC looks into the ways HEIs have been responding to and contributing towards National Development.
(ii) Fostering Global Competencies among Students
The spiraling developments at the global level also warrant that the NAAC includes in its scope of assessment skill development of students, on par with their counterparts elsewhere in the world. With liberalization and globalization of economic activities, the need to develop skilled human resources of a high caliber is imperative. Consequently, the demand for internationally acceptable standards in higher education is evident. Therefore, the accreditation process of NAAC needs to examine the role of HEIs in preparing the students to achieve core competencies, to face the global challenges successfully. This requires that the HEIs be innovative, creative and entrepreneurial in their approach. Towards achieving this, HEIs may establish collaborations with industries, network with the neighborhood agencies/bodies and foster a closer relationship between the “world of competent-learning” and the “world of skilled work”.
(iii) Inculcating a Value System among Students
Although skill development is crucial to the success of students in the job market, skills are of less value in the absence of appropriate value systems. The HEIs have to shoulder the responsibility of inculcating desirable value systems among students. In a country like India, with
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 10
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
cultural pluralities and diversities, it is essential that students imbibe the appropriate values commensurate with social, cultural, economic and environmental realities, at the local, national and universal levels. Whatever be the pluralities and diversities that exist in the country, there is a persisting concern for inculcating the core universal values like truth and righteousness apart from other values emphasized in the various policy documents of the country. The seeds of values such as cooperation and mutual understanding during the early stages of education have to be reiterated and re-emphasized at the higher education also through appropriate learning experiences and opportunities. The NAAC assessment therefore examines how these essential and desirable values are being inculcated in the students, by the HEIs.
(iv) Promoting the Use of Technology
Most of the significant developments that one can observe today can be attributed to the impact of Science and Technology. While the advantages of using modern tools and technological innovations in the day-to-day-life are well recognized, the corresponding changes in the use of new technologies, for teaching learning and governance of HEIs is an ongoing process. Technological advancement and innovations in educational transactions have to be undertaken by all HEIs, to make a visible impact on academic development as well as administration. At a time when our educational Institutions are expected to perform as good as their global partners, significant technological innovations have to be adopted. Traditional methods of delivering higher education have become less motivating to a large number of students. To keep pace with the developments in other spheres of human endeavor, HEIs have to enrich the learning experiences of their students by providing them with state-of-the-art educational technologies. The campus community must be adequately prepared to make use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) optimally. Conscious effort is also needed to invest in hardware and to orient the faculty suitably.
In addition to using technology as a learning resource, managing the activities of the Institution in a technology-enabled way will ensure effective Institutional functioning. For example, documentation and data management in the HEIs are areas where the process of assessment by NAAC has made a significant impact. Moving towards electronic data management and having Institutional website to provide ready and relevant information to stakeholders are desirable steps in this direction. In other words, effective use of ICT in HEIs will be able to provide ICT literacy to the campus community, using ICT for resource sharing and networking, as well as adopting ICT-enabled administrative processes. Therefore, NAAC accreditation would look at how the HEIs have put in place their electronic data management systems and electronic resources and their access to internal and external stakeholders particularly the student community.
(v) Quest for Excellence
Contributing to nation-building and skills development of students, HEIs should demonstrate a drive to develop themselves into centers of excellence. Excellence in all that they will contribute to the overall development of the system of higher education of the country as a whole.
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 11
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
This ‘Quest for Excellence’ could start with the assessment or even earlier, by the establishment of the Steering Committee for the preparation of the Self - Study Report (SSR) of an Institution. Another step in this direction could be the identification of the strengths and weaknesses in the teaching and learning processes as carried out by the Institution.
The five core values as outlined above form the foundation for assessment of Institutions that volunteer for accreditation by NAAC. The HEIs may also add their own core values to these in conformity with the goals and mission.
II. ASSESSMENT AND ACCREDITATION OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS
The NAAC has been carrying out the process of quality assessment and accreditation of HEIs over the past two decades. Several HEIs have gone through this process and a sizeable number has also undergone subsequent cycles of accreditation. True to its commitment for promoting quality culture in HEIs in consonance with the overall developments in the field of education as well as the outside world, NAAC has strived to be sensitive to these and adequately reflect these in its processes. The A&A process of NAAC continue to be an exercise in partnership of NAAC with the HEI being assessed. As is known by now, the A&A process of NAAC is being revised and this revision attempts to enhance such a partnership. Over years the feedback procured from the HEIs, other stakeholders and the developments in the national scene – all have contributed for the revision process of NAAC.
Revised Assessment and Accreditation (A&A) Framework
The Revised Assessment and Accreditation Framework is launched in July 2017. It represents an explicit Paradigm Shift making it ICT enabled, objective, transparent, scalable and robust. The Shift is:
from qualitative peer judgement to data based quantitative indicator evaluation with increased objectivity and transparency
towards extensive use of ICT confirming scalability and robustness in terms of simplification of the process resulting in drastic reduction in number of
questions, size of the report, visit days, and so on introducing Pre-qualifier for peer team visit, as 30% of system generated score introducing System Generated Scores (SGS) with the combination of online evaluation
(about 70%) and peer judgement (about 30%) in introducing the element of third party validation of data in providing appropriate differences in the metrics, weightages and benchmarks to
universities and affiliated/constituent colleges in revising several metrics to bring in enhanced participation of students and alumni in the
assessment process
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 12
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
Focus of Assessment
The NAAC continues with its focus on quality culture of the Institution in terms of Quality Initiatives, Quality Sustenance and Quality Enhancement, as reflected in its vision, objectives, operations and the processes. Experience has reiterated that these can be ascertained either by on site observations and/or through the facts and figures about the various aspects of Institutional functioning. The Revised Manual places greater emphasis in the latter as reflective of internal Institutional processes.
In line with NAAC’s conviction that quality concerns are Institutional, Quality Assessment (QA) can better be done through self-evaluation. The self-evaluation process and the subsequent preparation of the Self Study Report (SSR) to be submitted to NAAC involves the participation of all the stakeholders – management, faculty members, administrative staff, students, parents, employers, community and alumni. While the participation of internal stakeholders i.e. management, staff and students provide credibility and ownership to the activity and could lead to newer initiatives, interaction with the external stakeholders facilitate the development process of the Institution and their educational services. Overall, the QA is expected to serve as a catalyst for Institutional self-improvement, promote innovation and strengthen the urge to excel.
It is attempted to enlarge the digital coverage of the entire process of A&A. This, it is believed, will not only accelerate the process but also bring in greater objectivity into the process.
The possible differentiation required in respect of HEIs which are going for subsequent cycles of A&A, appropriate scope has been provided in the Process. This will allow the HEIs to appropriately represent the developments they have attempted after the previous A&A cycle.
III. QUALITY INDICATOR FRAMEWORK (QIF) - DESCRIPTION
The criteria based assessment forms the backbone of A&A process of NAAC. The seven criteria represent the core functions and activities of a HEI. In the revised framework not only the academic and administrative aspects of Institutional functioning but also the emerging issues have been included. The seven Criteria that would serve as basis for assessment of HEIs are:
1. Curricular Aspects2. Teaching-Learning and Evaluation3. Research, Innovations and Extension4. Infrastructure and Learning Resources5. Student Support and Progression6. Governance, Leadership and Management7. Institutional Values and Best Practices
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 13
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
Under each Criterion a few Key Indicators are identified. These Key Indicators (KIs) are further delineated as Metrics which actually elicit responses from the HEIs. These seven criteria along with their KIs are given below explicating the aspects they represent.
Criterion I: - Curricular AspectsThe Curricular Aspects are the mainstay of any educational Institution. However, the
responsibilities of various HEIs in this regard vary depending on their administrative standing. That is, an Affiliated College is essentially a teaching unit which depends on a larger body namely university for legitimizing its academic and administrative processes. Its engagement with curricular aspects is mainly in their implementation while its participation in curriculum development, procedural detailing, assessment procedures as well as certification is peripheral and these are “givens’’. Whereas a University has the mandate to visualize appropriate curricula for particular programmes, it has to revise/update them periodically to ensure that the outcomes of its programmes are defined by its bodies.
Criterion I pertains to the practices of an Institution in initiating a wide range of programme options and courses that are in tune with the emerging national and global trends and relevant to the local needs. Apart from issues of diversity and academic flexibility, aspects on career orientation, multi-skill development, feedback system and involvement of stakeholders in curriculum updating are also gauged.
The focus of Criterion I is captured in the following Key Indicators:
KEY INDICATORS
1.1*(U) -Curriculum Design and Development1.1*(A) - Curriculum Planning and Implementation1.2 Academic Flexibility1.3 Curriculum Enrichment1.4 Feedback System
*(U) - applicable only for Universities *(A) - applicable only for the Affiliated/Constituent Colleges
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 14
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
1.1 *(U) Curriculum Design and Development
One of the significant responsibilities of Universities is Curriculum Design and Development and thus is expected to have processes, systems and structures in place to shoulder this responsibility. Curriculum Design and Development is a complex process of developing appropriate need-based inputs in consultation with expert groups, based on the feedback from stakeholders. This results in the development of relevant programmes with flexibility to suit the professional and personal needs of the students and realization of core values. The Key Indicator (KI) also considers the good practices of the Institution in initiating a range of programme options and courses that are relevant to the local needs and in tune with the emerging national and global trends.
Curriculum evolved by the University comprises Programme Outcomes (POs), and Course Outcomes (COs), the substantive outlines of courses in every discipline (syllabus), organizational details of implementation as well as assessment of student performance and thereby attainment of POs and COs. The quality element is reflected in the efforts to revise, update and include emerging concerns etc., the University makes in this regard. The Curriculum designed by University may also focus on employability, entrepreneurship and skill development. The POs, COs could be uploaded on Institutional website.
1.1 *(A) Curricular Planning and ImplementationThe Affiliating/Constituent Colleges have rather limited role in curriculum
designing and development. They adopt the curriculum overview provided by the respective universities. Each college operationalizes the curriculum within the overall framework provided, in one’s own way depending on its resource potential, Institutional goals and concern and so on. That is, each college visualizes the way the curriculum has to be carried out – activities, who, how, when etc. This process makes each Institution unique and reflects on the concern of the college for quality in the form of values emphasized, sensitivities focused on, etc.
1.2 Academic Flexibility
Academic flexibility refers to the freedom in the use of the time-frame of the courses, horizontal mobility, inter-disciplinary options and others facilitated by curricular transactions. Supplementary enrichment programmes introduced as an initiative of the college, credit system and choice offered in the curriculum, in terms of programme, curricular transactions and time-frame options are also considered in this key indicator.
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 15
1.3 Curriculum Enrichment
Holistic development of students is the main purpose of curriculum. While this is attempted through prescribing dynamic and updated curricular inputs, the HEI is expected to have provision for added courses and activities which may not be directly linked with one’s discipline of study but contribute to sensitizing students to cross-cutting issues relevant to the current pressing concerns both nationally and internationally such as gender, environment and sustainability, human values and professional ethics, development of creative and divergent competencies. A progressive university would provide a wide range of such “value-added’’ courses for students to choose from according to their interests and inclinations.
1.4 Feedback System
The process of revision and redesign of curricula is based on recent developments and feedback from the stakeholders. The feedback from all stakeholders in terms of its relevance and appropriateness in catering to the needs of the society, economy and environment helps in improving the inputs.
A HEI with the feedback system in place will have an active process of not only collecting feedback from all stakeholders, but also analyzing it and identifying and drawing pertinent pointers to enhance the learning effectiveness.
Criterion II: - Teaching Learning and EvaluationCriterion II pertains to the efforts of an Institution to serve students of different
backgrounds and abilities, through effective teaching-learning experiences. Interactive instructional techniques that engage students in higher order ‘thinking’ and investigation, through the use of interviews, focused group discussions, debates, projects, presentations, experiments, practicum, internship and application of ICT resources are important considerations. It also probes into the adequacy, competence as well as the continuous professional development of the faculty who handle the programmes of study. The efficiency of the techniques used to continuously evaluate the performance of teachers and students is also a major concern of this Criterion.
The focus of Criterion II is captured in the following Key Indicators:
KEY INDICATORS2.1 Student Enrolment and Profile2.2 Catering to Student Diversity2.3 Teaching-Learning Process2.4 Teacher Profile and Quality2.5 Evaluation Process and Reforms2.6 Student Performance and Learning Outcomes2.7 Student Satisfaction Survey
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
2.1 Student Enrolment and Profile
The process of admitting students to the programmes is through a transparent, well-administered mechanism, complying with all the norms of the concerned regulatory/governing agencies including state and central governments. Apart from the compliance to the various regulations the Institution put forth its efforts in ensuring equity and wide access having representation of student community from different geographical areas and socio-economic, cultural and educational backgrounds. These will be reflected in the student profile.
2.2 Catering to Student Diversity
The HEIs are expected to satisfy the needs of the students from diverse backgrounds including backward community as well as from different locales. They would make special efforts to bring in students from special categories, reach out to their special learning needs by initial assessment of their learning levels, in addition to understand possible variations over years and how and what is done to deal with such students. While in uni-gender Institutions explicit efforts are to be made to sensitise students about the other gender; and the like.
2.3 Teaching-Learning Process
Diversity of learners in respect of their background, abilities and other personal attributes will influence the extent of their learning. The teaching-learning modalities of the Institution are rendered to be relevant for the learner group. The learner-centered education through appropriate methodologies such as participative learning, experiential learning and collaborative learning modes, facilitate effective learning. Teachers provide a variety of learning experiences, including individual and collaborative learning. Interactive and participatory approaches, if employed, create a feeling of responsibility in learners and makes learning a process of construction of knowledge. Of late, digital resources for learning have become available and this makes learning more individualised, creative and dynamic. Quality of learning provided in the Institution depends largely on teacher readiness to draw upon such recently available technology supports and also the initiative to develop such learning resources to enrich teaching-learning; on teacher’s familiarity with Learning Management Systems (LMSs), other e-resources available and how to meaningfully incorporate them in one’s scheme of teaching-learning.
2.4 Teacher Profile and Quality
“Teacher quality” is a composite term to indicate the quality of teachers in terms of their qualification, teacher characteristics, adequacy of recruitment procedures, faculty availability, professional development and recognition of teaching abilities. Teachers take initiative to learn and keep abreast with the latest developments, to innovate, continuously seek improvement in their work and strive for individual and Institutional excellence.
2.5 Evaluation Process and Reforms
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 17
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
This Key Indicator looks at issues related to assessment of teaching, learning and evaluative processes and reforms, to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the system. One of the purposes of evaluation is to provide development-inducing feedback. The qualitative dimension of evaluation is in its use for enhancing the competence of students. Innovative evaluation process is to gauge the knowledge and skills acquired at various levels of the programmes.
These specifications are stated as POs and COs. The quality of assessment process in a HEI depends on how well the examination system actually tests the POs and COs, quality of questions, extent of transparency in the system, extent of development inducing feedback system, regularity in the conduct of examinations and declaration of results as well as the regulatory mechanisms for prompt action on possible errors.
2.6 Student Performance and Learning Outcomes
The real test of the extent to which teaching learning has been effective in a HEI is reflected in the student performance in the examinations. Student performance is seen as the realization of learning outcomes which are specifications of what a student should be capable of doing on successful completion of a course and/or a programme.
2.7 Student Satisfaction Survey
All the efforts of teachers and the Institution to make learning a meaningful process can be considered impactful only to the extent students perceive it to be meaningful. Their satisfaction level is decided by the kinds of experiences they undergo, the extent of the “comfort” feeling as well as intellectual stimulation the learning situations provide. Their feedback significantly showcases the actual quality of teaching learning process enabling identification of the strengths of teaching as well as the possible improvements. Student satisfaction, thus, is a direct indicator of the effectiveness of teaching learning in the Institution. It may be impractical to capture this aspect from every student; however, every HEI can resort to a sample survey on a formalized basis to capture this significant feature. This is the reason the revised assessment framework of NAAC adopts survey of student satisfaction.
Criterion III: - Research, Innovations and ExtensionThis Criterion seeks information on the policies, practices and outcomes of the Institution,
with reference to research, innovations and extension. It deals with the facilities provided and efforts made by the Institution to promote a ‘research culture’. The Institution has the responsibility to enable faculty to undertake research projects useful to the society. Serving the community through extension, which is a social responsibility and a core value to be demonstrated by Institutions, is also a major aspect of this Criterion.
The focus of Criterion III is captured in the following Key Indicators:
KEY INDICATORS
3.1 *Promotion of Research and Facilities (Not Applicable to Affiliated Colleges)

3.2 Resource Mobilization for Research3.3 Innovation Ecosystem3.4 Research Publications and Awards3.5 *Consultancy (Not Applicable to Affiliated Colleges)3.6 Extension Activities3.7 Collaboration
*Not Applicable to Affiliated Colleges
3.1 Promotion of Research and Facilities
The promotion of research is a significant responsibility of the HEIs particularly for Universities without which a ‘research culture’ on campus cannot be realised. The HEIs have to be actively engaged in this through evolving appropriate policies and practices, making adequate resources available, encouraging active research involvement of teachers and scholars in research as well as recognizing any achievement of teachers through research. It also includes responsiveness and administrative supportiveness (procedural flexibility) in the Institution in utilizing the supports and resources available at the Government agencies and/or other agencies. Required infrastructure in terms of space and equipment and support facilities are made available on the campus for undertaking research. The Institution collaborates with other agencies, Institutions, research bodies for sharing research facilities and undertaking collaborative research.
3.2 Resource Mobilisation for Research
The Institution provides support in terms of financial, academic and human resources required and timely administrative decisions to enable faculty to submit project proposals and approach funding agencies for mobilizing resources for research. The Institutional support to its faculty for submitting research projects and securing external funding through flexibility in administrative processes and infrastructure and academic support are crucial for any Institution to excel in research. The faculties are empowered to take up research activities utilizing the existing facilities. The Institution encourages its staff to engage in interdisciplinary and interdepartmental research activities and resource sharing.
3.3 Innovation Ecosystem
The Institution has created an ecosystem for innovation including incubation centre and other initiatives for creation and transfer of knowledge. The Institution conducts workshop/seminars on Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) and Industry-Academia Innovative practices. Awards for innovation won by Institution/teachers/research scholars/students, start-ups incubated on-campus are explicitly commended by the Institution.
3.4 Research Publications and Awards
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 19
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
Exploration and reflection are crucial for any teacher to be effective in one’s job. Quality research outcome is beneficial for the discipline, society, industry, region and the nation. Sharing of knowledge especially theoretical and practical findings of research through various media enhances quality of teaching and learning. Research acumen in an Institution is an evolving feature reflecting various research output with clear records such as - doctoral, post-doctoral, projects, inventions and discoveries, number of patents obtained and number of research publications.
3.5 ConsultancyActivity organized or managed by the faculty for an external agency for which the expertise and
the specific knowledge base of the faculty becomes the major input. The finances generated through consultancy are fairly utilized by the Institution. The faculty taking up consultancy is properly rewarded. University is a resource pool with several persons engaged in research at various levels. Consultancy shows the credibility of the university’s research acumen in the outside world. While the university personnel extend their expertise to other agencies the university also generates some revenue along with the research faculty. For this it is necessary that the university has a formalized policy on consultancy with clear specification of revenue sharing between the teacher and the Institution. This may not be a formalized aspect of a college.
3.6 Extension Activities
Learning activities have a visible element for developing sensitivities towards community issues, gender disparities, social inequity etc. and in inculcating values and commitment to society. Affiliation and interaction with groups or individuals who have an interest in the activities of the Institution and the ability to influence the actions, decisions, policies, practices or goals of the organization leads to mutual benefit to both the parties. The processes and strategies inherent in such activities relevantly sensitize students to the social issues and contexts. Sustainable practices of the Institution leading to superior performance results in successful outcomes in terms of generating knowledge useful for the learner as well as the community.
Extension also is the aspect of education which emphasizes community services. These are often integrated with curricula as extended opportunities, intended to help, serve, reflect and learn. The curriculum-extension interface has an educational value, especially in rural India.
3.7 Collaboration
Through collaboration the HEIs can maintain a closer contact with the work field. It helps keep the academic activities in the HEI in a more realistic perspective and also expand the scope of learning experiences to students. Collaboration can be sought with academic Institutions or industry or other agencies of professional and social relevance. The range of activities could include training, student exchange, faculty exchange, research and resource sharing, among others. For making collaborative endeavor impactful it is necessary there is a formal agreement or understanding between the Institution and other HEIs or agencies for such activities.

Criterion VII: - Institutional Values and Best PracticesAn educational Institution operates in the context of the larger education system in the country. In
order to be relevant in changing national and global contexts an educational institution has to be responsive to the emerging challenges and pressing issues. It has a social responsibility to be proactive in the efforts towards development in the larger contexts. This role of the Institution is reflected in terms of the kinds of programmes, activities and preferences (values) that it incorporates within its regular functioning. The extent to which an Institution is impactful in this is a sure reflection of its quality.
Every Institution has a mandate to be responsive to at least a few pressing issues such as gender equity, environmental consciousness and sustainability, inclusiveness and professional ethics, but the way it addresses these and evolves practices will always be unique. Every Institution faces and resolves various kinds of internal pressures and situations while doing this. Some meaningful practices pertinent to such situations are evolved within the Institution and these help smooth functioning and also lead to enhanced impact. Such practices which are evolved internally by the Institution leading to improvements in any one aspect of its functioning – academic, administrative or organizational, - are recognized as a “best practices”. Over a period of time, due to such unique ways of functioning each Institution develops distinct characteristic which becomes its recognizable attribute.

The Institution organizes gender equity promotion programmes. The Institution displays sensitivity to issues like climate change and environmental issues. It adopts environment friendly practices and takes necessary actions such as – energy conservation, rain water harvesting, waste recycling (solid/liquid waste management, e-waste management), carbon neutral, green practices etc. The Institution facilitates the differently-abled (Divyangjan friendliness), effective dealing of location advantages and disadvantages (situatedness), explicit concern for human values and professional ethics etc. In other words, the concerns for social responsibilities as well as the values held by the Institution are explicit in its regular activities.
7.2 Best Practices
Any practice or practices that the Institution has internally evolved and used during the last few years leading to positive impact on the regular functioning of the Institution can be identified as “best practice/s”. These are not any activity prescribed by some authority. At some point in time the Institution evolves some innovation or a change in some aspect of functioning. This practice is relevant mainly within the Institution at a given point in time. It could be in respect of teaching learning, office practices, maintenance and up keep of things or dealing with human beings or money matters. But adopting that practice has resolved the difficulty or has brought in greater ease in working in that aspect. In brief, these ‘best practices’ are relevant within the Institutional context and may pertain to either academic or administrative or organizational aspects of Institutional functioning.
7.3 Institutional DistinctivenessEvery Institution would like to be recognized for certain of its attributes which make it ‘distinct’,
or, one of its kinds. Such attributes characterize the Institution and are reflected in all its activities in focus and practice.

V. Approaches / policies adopted by NAAC in the development of Manual of Health Sciences for Colleges
1. Essence of Revised Assessment and Accreditation (A & A) Framework retained in the manual of Health Sciences for colleges. Details are as under:
The Revised Assessment and Accreditation Framework was launched in July 2017. It represents an explicit Paradigm Shift making it ICT enabled, objective, transparent, scalable and robust. The Shift is:
from qualitative peer judgement to data based quantitative indicator evaluation with increased objectivity and transparency
towards extensive use of ICT confirming scalability and robustness in terms of simplification of the process resulting in drastic reduction in number of
questions, size of the report, visit days, and so on introducing Pre-qualifier for peer team visit, as 30% of system generated score. introducing System Generated Scores (SGS) with the combination of online evaluation
(about 65%) and peer judgement (about 35%) in Health Sciences in the data/supporting documents submitted during online submission of SSR by HEIs -
the element of third party verification and validation of data (DVV process) in providing appropriate differences in the metrics, weightages and benchmarks to
universities and affiliated/constituent colleges after pilot study of Health Sciences Institutions
feedback analysis in revising several metrics to bring in enhanced participation of students and alumni in the assessment process
Introduction of Student Satisfaction Survey under 2.7 of Manual
2. Integrating essential components of Health Sciences Institutions in the manual of Health Sciences for Assessment & Accreditation and Inclusion of new key indicators and metrics related to Health Sciences (VED-Vital ,essential, desirable ] in the rationalisation.
3. Option to opt out non applicable metrics to a maximum of 50 weightage – is not allowed in Health Sciences manual because of the nature of Professional courses / subjects of study as stipulated by Statutory Regulatory Bodies.
4. Based on perception of Health Sciences colleges, discipline specific metrics are in place in the manual of Health Sciences for Colleges [Part B]
5. Committee suggested to arrive at CGPA for the manual of Health Sciences Colleges as under:
CGPA – Part –A 900 weightage points -covering Criterion 1 to 7 Part –B 100 with weightage points to be integrated in ICT as 8th component
CGPA Total = 1000 (to keep uniformity in the usage of CGPA in all process of NAAC and in different manuals of NAAC)

VII. THE ASSESSMENT PROCESS
Taking cognizance of the diversity in the kinds of institutions, HEIs have been grouped under three categories namely, Autonomous Colleges and Affiliated/Constituent Colleges
The assessment process will be carried out in three stages. As stated earlier, it will comprise three main components, viz., Self Study Report (SSR), Student Satisfaction Survey and the Peer Team Report. The SSR has a total of 109 Metrics for Part A of the Colleges Manual covering the seven Criteria described earlier (refer table -2 &3 for details). The SSR has two kinds of Metrics: one, those requiring quantifiable facts and figures as data which have been indicated as ‘quantitative metrics’ (QnM); and two, those metrics requiring descriptive responses and are accordingly named ‘qualitative metrics’ (QlM). Table 1 depicts the distribution of Key Indicators (KIs) and Metrics across them.
VIII. PROCEDURAL DETAILS for IIQA/SSR submission online for Health Sciences Institutions
HEIs are expected to read the below given details carefully and note the specifications of the revised process of A&A.
1. Eligible HEIs seeking A&A are required to submit Institutional Information for Quality Assessment (IIQA) online any time during the year [STARTING FROM APRIL/MAY 2019]. Duly filled in IIQAs of eligible HEIs will be accepted by NAAC for further processing and others will be rejected.
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 32
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
2. In case of rejection of IIQA applications specific suggestions would be given to HEIs to facilitate them to resubmit IIQA. An institution can reapply twice after the first attempt resulted in rejection. That is, each HEI is permitted three attempts in a year with a single fee. After this, it will be considered a fresh application with required fees.
3. After the acceptance of IIQA, the institution will be asked to fill the SSR with the required document to be uploaded in the portal of NAAC website within 45 days. The SSR of the HEI will then be subjected to further process. As preparation of SSR is a systematic process, so it is suggested that the HEIs should be ready with soft copy of SSR and related documents well in advance of submitting IIQA. Those institutions who fail to submit SSR within 45 days will have to apply afresh starting from IIQA & its fees. In any case fees for IIQA will not be refundable.
4. The SSR has to be uploaded as per the format in portal of NAAC. After submission of SSR on NAAC portal, HEI would receive an auto generated link/ID of SSR in their registered email id. The same SSR in .pdf format should be then uploaded on institutional website.
5. The SSR has to be submitted only online. HEIs should make necessary preparations with the required data, documents and/or responses before logging on to the NAAC website for submission of SSR online. Careful study of the Manual will be of great help in this regard.
6. As indicated earlier, the SSR comprises both Qualitative and Quantitative metrics. The Quantitative Metrics (QnM) add up to about 65% and the remaining about 35% are Qualitative Metrics (QlM).
7. The Institution shall visit NAAC website for Standard Operating Procedures for Data Verification and Validation. The data submitted on Quantitative Metrics (QnM) will be subjected to validation exercise with the help of Data Validation and Verification (DVV) process done by NAAC. The responses to Qualitative Metrics (QlM) will be reviewed by the Peer Team on site only after the institution clears the Pre-qualifier stage.
8. Any Institution found to be providing wrong information/data during Validation and Verification stage will be asked for clarifications. On the basis of clarifications submitted by the HEIs the data will be again sent for DVV process. The process of Data Validation and Verification (DVV) by NAAC will be done in not more than 30 days.
9. Pre-qualifier: The Quantitative Metrics (QnM) of SSR will be sent for Data Validation and Verification (DVV) Process. After DVV process, a DVV Deviation report will be generated. On the basis of the Deviation report, the A&A process will proceed further as per the following conditions: a) HEI whose Metrics are found to be deviated will be liable for the penalty or legal action. Their
first installment of accreditation fees will also be forfeited, and the name of such HEI will be sent to statutory authorities for further actions.
b) HEI that clears the DVV process will proceed for Peer Team Visit with a condition of a Pre-qualifier, that the HEI should score at least 30% in Quantitative Metrics (QnM) as per the final score after the DVV Process. If the HEI does not clear the Pre-qualifier stage then they will have to apply afresh by submitting the IIQA and its fees. Such HEIs are eligible to apply again only after six months.
10. After the DVV process, NAAC will intimate the HEI, within 10 days stating that they have successfully cleared the Pre-qualifier. This indicates that the institution has entered the next round
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 33
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
of assessment to be done by the Peer Team during their on-site visit. The focus of Peer Team visit will be on the 30% Qualitative Metrics (QlM).
11. Student Satisfaction Survey (SSS): It will be conducted as per the following conditions:a) SSS will be conducted simultaneously with DVV process. b) Institutions will have to submit the entire database of students with e-mail/mobile numbers, at
the time of filling of online SSR itself. c) The SSS questionnaire (20 objective & 01 subjective for Colleges and for Universities 22
objective & 01 subjective) will be e-mailed to all students and the following rule will be applied for processing the responses. i. For colleges – (UG/PG and Autonomous) responses should be received from at least 10%
of the student population or 100, whichever is less. ii. For Universities – 10% of the student population or 500 whichever is less.
d) If the response rate is lower than the limits mentioned by NAAC, the metric will not be taken up for evaluation.
e) SSS will be completed within one month after its initiation.12. Peer Team visit of the institution should not exceed three months after clearance of Pre-qualifier
stage. 13. Based on the size and scope of academic offerings at the HEIs, the number of days and experts for
onsite visit may vary from 2-3 days with 3-5 expert reviewers visiting the institutions. The visiting teams’ role would be very specific in the revised model limited to Qualitative Metrics (QlM). The teams would play an important role in reviewing the intangible aspects.
14. Unlike in the past NAAC will not pre-disclose the details of the visiting teams and HEIs will not be responsible for Logistics for the Visiting Teams. Hence forth NAAC will directly take care of all the logistics arrangements to the Peer Teams visiting the institutions. All payment towards TA, DA, Honorarium, etc., will be directly paid by NAAC to the nominated members. There would be no financial transactions between the Institution and the visiting NAAC team.
15. The institutions need to add a link in home page of their institutional website for NAAC records/files viz., SSR, Peer Team Report, AQAR, Certificate of NAAC and Accreditation documents etc., for easy access by its stakeholders. The said link should be clearly visible/ highlighted.
16. Guidelines for filling up Self-Study Report (SSR): Extended profile contains all the questions which are basically the figures of denominators of the formulas used for calculation of various Metrics values. There are Tool Tips at various places in portal, such as Metrics, sub-metrics, upload, etc. which are given as guidance regarding the sort of data required to be submitted by the institution. The Tool Tip is denoted in the form of . Institutions are required to go through the respective Tool Tip thoroughly before filling the data. The data filled should contextualise with the related metrics. There is an upload limits for the documents to be uploaded for various Metrics, if the size of the document exceeds that limit, Institution may upload the same in their own website with password protection, if required. The link of the said uploaded document should be given in the portal.
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 34
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
There is a fixed timeline for the entire DVV process. Institutions are supposed to respond within stipulated time given by DVV partner, during DVV clarification stage. If not responded within the given time frame, DVV partner recommended input value will be taken as the final value. The data of the students for Student Satisfaction Survey (SSS) has to be submitted concurrently during online submission of SSR. Where-so-ever ‘Asterisk Red mark’ is indicated in the portal it should be understood as mandatory requirement.
17. Regarding withdrawal of SSR submitted : The HEIs which have submitted their SSRs will not be allowed to withdraw from the process at
any stage. If a HEI which has submitted its SSR, for any reason, does not complete the A&A process, the
information that it has withdrawn / not completed the process should be hosted both on the HEI and NAAC website.
Such HEI will be allowed to apply for A&A only after a period of three years.
IX. ASSESSMENT OUTCOME
The final result of the Assessment and Accreditation exercise will be an ICT based score, which is a combination of evaluation of qualitative and quantitative metrics. This will be compiled as a document comprising three parts.
PART I - Peer Team Report
Section 1: Gives the General Information of the institution and its context. Section 2: Gives Criterion wise analysis based on peer evaluation of qualitative indicators. Instead of
reporting with bullet points, this will be a qualitative, descriptive assessment report based on the Peer Team’s critical analysis presenting strengths and weaknesses of HEI under each Criterion
Section 3: Presents an Overall Analysis which includes Institutional Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges.
Section 4: Records Recommendations for Quality Enhancement of the Institution (not more than 10 major ones).
PART II - Graphical representation based on Quantitative Metrics (QnM)
This part will be a System Generated Quality Profile of the HEI based on statistical analysis of quantitative indicators in the NAAC’s QIF (quality indicator framework). Graphical presentation of institutional features would be reflected through synthesis of quantifiable indicators.
PART III - Institutional Grade Sheet
Contains the Institutional Grade Sheet which is based on qualitative indicators, quantitative indicators and student satisfaction survey using existing calculation methods but it will be generated by a software.
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 35
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
The above three parts will together form “NAAC Accreditation Outcome” document. It is mandatory for the HEIs to display it on their institutional website apart from NAAC hosting it on its website.
Calculation of Institutional CGPA
The CGPA will be calculated based on the scores obtained from the three sources, viz., The System Generated Scores (SGS) of the quantitative metrics which comprise about 70% of the total, the scores from the qualitative metrics includes critical appraisal by the Peer Team through on site visit and the scores obtained on the Student Satisfaction Survey. These will be collated through an automated procedure based on ‘benchmarks’ and assessed on a five point scale, viz., (0, 1, 2, 3 & 4).
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 36
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
The Final GradeOn the basis of the CGPA obtained by the institution in maximum possible score of 4.00, the
final grade is assigned on a seven point scale as shown in Table 3. The seven point refers to the seven letter grades each aligned to the seven specific score range.
Table 3 Institutional Grades and Accreditation Status

2.51-2.75 B+ Accredited
2.01-2.50 B Accredited1.51-2.00 C Accredited≤ 1.50 D Not Accredited
Institutions which secure a CGPA equal to or less than 1.50 are notionally categorized under the letter grade “D”. Such unqualified institutions will also be intimated and notified by NAAC as “Assessed and Found not qualified for Accreditation”.
X. MECHANISM FOR INSTITUTIONAL APPEALSThe process of Assessment and Accreditation is viewed as an exercise in partnership
done jointly by the NAAC and the institution being assessed. Every stage of the process is marked by transparency. The institution is consulted at various stages of the process – eliminating conflict of interest with the peers, planning the visit schedule, sharing the draft peer team report before the team leaves the campus etc. In spite of this participatory approach, there may be institutions that might have grievances to be addressed. Therefore, to provide a review mechanism for institutions who are aggrieved about the process or its outcome or any other issues related thereof, the NAAC has evolved Mechanism for Institutional Appeals. For details visit NAAC website.
Appeals Process
Appeal by the institution to the Director, NAAC
An Appeal is the request by an institution to review its grading on valid grounds, after the announcement of A&A result on the NAAC website.
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 37
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
A. An aggrieved institution will submit an Intent for Appeal (IFA) in the prescribed format (uploaded on the NAAC website) by E-mail/letter to Director, NAAC within fifteen (15) days from the date of declaration of the result on the NAAC Website and HEI portal. On receipt of IFA, NAAC will provide Qualitative Metrics (QlM) document (if, not provided earlier) to HEI within one week. After receiving the document (soft copy) from NAAC by email, HEI must submit appeal online in prescribed pro-forma as given at Annexure – 1 / 2 within 30 days (from the date of receipt of email).
B. An aggrieved institution must submit appeal online through the HEI portal in prescribed pro-forma as given at Annexure – 1 / 2 within 30 days from the receipt of documents from NAAC along with a non-refundable fee of Rs 1,00,000/- (+GST as applicable) using the online payment option available on the HEI portal. In any case date of submission of Appeal shall not be beyond 45 days (including IFA) from the date of declaration of results on the NAAC website
2. Scrutiny by the Director, NAAC
The Director, NAAC after initial scrutiny will refer the pro-forma and other relevant documents to the Convenor for further processing to the Appeals Committee. All correspondence relating to Appeals shall be done by the convener with the HEI’s.
An Appeals Committee constituted for the purpose will consider the appeal and make recommendations to the Executive Committee (EC). The decision of the EC shall be binding on the institution. For details, refer to the NAAC website: www.naac.gov.in
XI. RE-ASSESSMENTInstitutions, which would like to make an improvement in the accredited status, may
volunteer for re-assessment, after completing at least one year, but not after the completion of three years. The option can be exercised only once in a cycle. Re-assessed institution cannot come for another re-assessment in the same cycle. The current procedures and methodology including the manual for the Assessment and Accreditation is applicable for all institutions applying for re-assessment. However, the institution shall make specific responses based on the recommendations made by the peer team in the previous assessment and accreditation report, as well as the specific quality improvements made by the institution in the intervening period. The fee structure and other process would be as per the current procedures of Assessment and Accreditation (more details can be obtained from NAAC website). Institutions that volunteer for re-assessment will not be eligible for fee waiver and reimbursement of accreditation expenses.
XII. SUBSEQUENT CYCLES OF ACCREDITATIONThe methodology for subsequent cycles of accreditation remains the same. However,
due consideration would be given to the post-accreditation activities resulting in quality improvement, quality sustenance and quality enhancement. In the SSRs institutions opting for subsequent cycles of accreditation need to highlight the significant quality sustenance and enhancement measures undertaken during the last four years (narrative not exceeding 10 pages). A functional Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) and timely submission of
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 38
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
Annual Quality Assurance Reports (AQARs) are the Minimum Institutional Requirements (MIR) to volunteer for second, third or fourth cycle accreditation.
Institutions intending to be assessed to continue their accreditation need to apply afresh by submission of A&A application during the last six months of their validity period.
It may be noted that institutions under the third cycle of A&A which have obtained the highest grade for two consecutive cycles and have retained their grade in the third cycle also, will have their accreditation valid for 7 years instead of 5 years. Highest grade would refer to A++ and A+ , that is, CGPA of 3.51 and above out of 4 in the currently enforced seven point scale or on the earlier used nine point scale a grade of A and above (institutional score of 85-100). (Pending decision by EC).

XIV. GETTING READY FOR SUBMISSION OF SELF - STUDY REPORT (SSR)
HEIs applying for A&A process should take note of the changes in the assessment process. It must be noted that the SSR has to be submitted online only through portal. The portal will be made available to the Institution on the NAAC website in ‘Apply Online Tab’. It would be helpful if the institution read the Manual carefully and get ready with all kinds of details required to be filled up in online format. Use this Manual for understanding the revised process of A&A and preparing for the submission of SSR in the new online format. Some significant tips are reiterated below.
While submitting the IIQA, ensure that there is adequate number of days for processing the SSR within the stipulated period, after the date of its acceptance by NAAC.
The SSR has to be filled online; for this NAAC will provide access to the respective portal on the website for institutions, according to pre-declared timeline.
Read instruction about where to upload the documents and data, in what format data have to be presented for the various metrics and required verbal explication for the qualitative metrics.
Kinds of information to be filled in the SSR are given in the QIF presented in Section B.
The Profile of the Institution given in Section B is self-evident in seeking information about the institution.
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 41
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
The QIF given in Section B indicates the kinds of data and documents required for each of the Metrics while filling up the SSR and also kinds of responses to be given.
In an initial exercise, the institution can prepare details as sought in the QIF (Section B) about the various aspects of its functioning and upload them in a protected space on the institutional website. This will make it easy to upload and/or make them available through hyperlinks whenever required.
Some of the documents indicated such as minutes of various committees/bodies, financial details and similar items for which the institution may not like to provide in open access could be kept ready and made available through hyperlinks whenever required.
Keep all the relevant documents and data indicated in the QIF for each Metric under all KIs as a template so that when access to online SSR is available, it’s easy to provide pertinent data.
Wherever verbal descriptions are required write briefly as indicated (eg. . . in not more than 500 words…. or…. in not more than 200 words…, etc). Contemplate well and prepare the write ups explicating the highlights of the sought details about the institution without wasting space/words on ‘frill’ details.
The online formats (templates) for submitting data with respect to Quantitative Metrics (QnM) is given in Sub Section 7 of Section B. The same template in excel format can be downloaded from NAAC website available in an ‘Apply Online Tab’.
Ensure authentic, correct data are provided through out. Incorrect data or false details could lead to disqualification or penalty.
Strictly adhere to the time specifications given by NAAC. Some details may have to be worked out if they are not ready; eg. COs, PSOs,
compiled reports from various minutes and analyses of feedback, etc... Keep a brief executive summary for upload as per details given in Section B. Do not send any information as hard copy to NAAC unless specified. Read the Manual completely including the Glossary and Notes. This will help in clear
understanding of the terms used in the Quality Indicator Framework (QIF). For Metric related to finance the preceding financial year (1st April to 31st March) may
be used to consolidate data, for publication related data preceding calendar year (1st
January to 31st December) data to be entered and for the other metrics the preceding academic year may be taken for data to be entered in ‘data capturing format’ of portal. Wherever the requirement of current year data is mentioned, use the data of last completed academic year.
XV. MANDATORY DISCLOSURE ON HEI’s WEBSITE
NAAC for Quality and Excellence in Higher Education 42
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
To ensure the transparency in the process of Assessment and Accreditation, it is necessary for the Higher Educational Institution’s (HEI’s) to upload the SSR along with other relevant documents on Institutional website. Thus it is suggested to create a separate NAAC tab/link on Higher Educational Institution’s (HEI’s) website and upload following documents till the validity period of Accreditation is over:
1) SSR submitted online, to be uploaded after DVV process only (.pdf format).2) Data templates which are uploaded along with SSR (in password protected mode, if
needed).3) Annual Quality Assurance Report (AQAR – Year wise)4) Accreditation outcome document viz., Certificate, Grade sheet, etc.

4. Quality Indicator Framework (QIF)
Essential Note:
The revised format of the SSR has to be filled up only online and the IT format will be made available on the NAAC website.The QIF given below presents the Metrics under each Key Indicator (KI) for all the seven Criteria.
While going through the QIF, details are given below for each Metric in the form of: data required formula for calculating the information, wherever required, and documents needed to be uploaded, from which data could be compiled.
These inputs will help Institutions not only in the preparation of the SSR, but also indicate the importance of the item given, variety and range of data to be provided and throw light on the documents and the mode of response to be provided in support of the claims made by the HEI.
For some Qualitative Metrics (QlM) which seek descriptive data it is specified as to what kind of information has to be given and how much. It is advisable to keep data accordingly compiled beforehand.
For the Quantitative Metrics (QnM) wherever formula is given (around 21), it must be noted that these are given merely to inform the HEIs about the manner in which data submitted will be used. That is the actual online formats seek only data in specified manner which will process digitally. It is necessary to fill in details for denominator and the numerator, as well as the percentage and/or the value arrived at.
The manual further indicates the Metric wise weightage also.
The actual online format may change slightly from the QIF given in this Manual which is because of rendering it to the IT format. Institutions are advised to observe this carefully while filling up.

Standard Operating Procedure for Data Verification and Validation (SOP for Health Sciences Colleges)
Health Sciences Manual for Colleges with Qualitative Metrics and Quantitative Metrics (applicable for all cycles and for Re-Assessment) (Applicable for the first as well as subsequent Cycles) with data templates and Glossary.
UNIFIED Manual for Health Sciences Colleges The SOP for DVV process has 2 sections namely – Part – A for 900 weightage which is generic in nature and Part –B for 100 weightage is discipline specific in nature. Sec-A is applicable to all types of Health Sciences Colleges where as Part -B is discipline specific (Medical, Dental, Pharmacy, Nursing, Ayurveda, Yoga / Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, Homeopathy, Physiotherapy and Allied Health Sciences). This Manual is applicable for all cycles and Re-Assessment also. This is applicable to affiliated / Constituent Colleges only. While preparing SSRs, Health Sciences Colleges have to refer both manual and SOP for DVV.
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
Standard Operating Procedure for Data Verification and Validation (Health Sciences Colleges) - For DVV Partners only General Guidelines: It is essential that the DVV Partners ensure the following:
Along with the data to be provided by the HEI in the SSR, those in the template as well as the supporting documents are seen in consonance during the process of Verification and Validation.
If, for any Metric, documents provided by the HEI are insufficient, insist on and procure appropriate documents during Clarification.
Ensure that the relevant data from “third party sources” such as NIRF, AISHE, are also utilized to cross check wherever relevant data are available.
Seek details on random sample basis from the HEI wherever the dataset is large in respect of metrics for which SOP specifies to do so. Selection of sample to be done by DVV partner and sample to be done by DVV partner and not by HEI.
Ensure the SOP is followed wherever strictly for each Metric. In case the ‘recommended’ input is different from the HEI
claim, provide ‘remarks’ with justification. Cross check related data given in difference metrics. In case the HEIs provide documents in a regional language,
English translation of the same should be sought.
1. Meaning and need of SOP in the NAAC context:
NAAC as a quality organisation must first create a culture where quality objectives are transparent and well understood. Undoubtedly these goals can be achieved by following certain sets of procedures called as “Standard Operating Procedures” (SOP). A Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is a set of written instructions that document a routine or repetitive activity which is followed by employees in an organization. The development and use of SOPs are an integral part of a successful quality system. Procedures are essential for effectiveness and efficiency in work and they are regulatory requirement in the NAAC processes. It provides information to perform a job properly, and consistently in order to achieve pre-determined specification and quality end-result.
SOPs detail the regularly recurring work processes that are to be conducted or followed within an organization. They document the way activities are to be performed to facilitate consistent conformance to quality system requirements and to support data quality. .
Unified Manual for Health Sciences Colleges 26/07/2019
Sops are intended to be specific to the organization or facility whose activities are described and assist that organization to maintain their quality control and quality assurance processes and ensure compliance with governmental regulations. SOP contains step by step instructions that employee must refer in daily work to complete various tasks more reliably and consistently. SOP makes clear about followings -
·What is the objective of SOP (Purpose) ?
·What are its applicability and use of SOP (Scope)?
·Who will perform tasks (Responsibility) ?
·Who will ensure implementation of procedure (Accountability) ?
·How tasks will be performed (Procedure) ?
Procedures are not an end in themselves but support process/ people .They do not guarantee good performance or results. More important are well-designed systems and processes, qualified employees, and a motivating work culture that guarantee good performance.
SOP is a dynamic process and hence it is decided not to print the material. We will provide only soft copy. It is because NAAC rules /norms /standards keep on changing from time to time. Accordingly changes will be incorporated in SOP periodically.
Further this SOP material is prepared based on existing practices/rules/norms/standards and is for internal use in NAAC . Any changes may be incorporated later on.
Many activities use checklists to ensure that steps are followed in order. Checklists are also used to document completed actions. Any checklists or forms included as part of an activity should be referenced at the points in the procedure where they are to be used and then attached to the SOP. In some cases, detailed checklists are prepared specifically for a given activity. In those cases, the SOP should describe, at least generally, how the checklist is to be prepared, or on what it is to be based. Copies of specific checklists should be then maintained in the file with the activity results and/or with the SOP. Remember that the checklist is not the SOP, but a part of the SOP.
It shall be noted that the Best written SOPs will fail if they are not followed.
Note:
Date: 16/01/2019
Modification of Time Line for Submission of Self Study Report (SSR) Time line for online submission of Self Study Report for Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) shall be 45 days from the date of acceptance of Institutional Information for Quality Assessment (IIQA). This is applicable to all the Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) whose Institutional Information for Quality Assessment (IIQA) is accepted.

MEDICAL EDUCATION IN INDIA Date 17-5-2019
Medical schools in India produce the largest number of doctors than anywhere else in the world (30,408 from 271 medical schools), corresponding to the rapid proliferation of medical colleges in the last two decades, especially within the private sector. The Medical Council of India (MCI), the regulatory body, is required to approve any significant reforms in medical curricula. The accreditation process for medical schools focuses largely on the infrastructure and human resources required and little on the process and quality of education or outcomes. The implementation of the recommendations of MCI regarding recognition or de-recognition of a medical college is governed by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, whilst individual universities also have variable sets of regulations for their affiliated medical schools. As a result, there is no uniformity in the standard of medical education across the country.In recent years, the governing bodies of medicine in our country have come under the scanner, drawing strong criticism from legal authorities regarding stagnation in the education system. On the other hand, India is emerging as a favorite medical tourism destination, citing the advances and expertise in the field. These contradictory view points raise the question as to whether the medical education system in our country needs to be revamped in order to enhance the quality and quantity of medical services and personnel.
The basis of a successful healthcare delivery system and universal access to healthcare depends on the status of the medical education system. The Indian Medical Council (IMC) Act was passed in 1956, to provide a solid foundation for the growth of medical education. However, with increasing population demands and the occurrence of diseases, there is a need to modify the approach to medical training in order to ensure improvement of clinical skills than focus predominantly on theoretical information. To this effect, the National Knowledge Commission was established by the Government of India (2005), to address the constraints and challenges relating to curriculum, infrastructure, and administration.Healthcare services in India present with regional variations and challenges. For example, the medical needs of rural communities differ from those of urban dwellers. The medical curriculum; therefore, should train students to perform effectively at primary care settings without advanced diagnostic and multidisciplinary support. However, it is also important to familiarize doctors with the advances in the field. The task is to maintain a balance between the core principles and advances to ensure all-round proficiency among medical students/professionals.Committees have recommended restructuring the curriculum to match with the needs of the community, and to adopt training methods that focus on attainment of clinical competence, through an integrated approach, preferably a modular one. Moreover, uniform standards of medical education must be ensured across states and institutions at both undergraduate and post-graduate levels. A robust quality assurance mechanism must be in place to evaluate any lapse in the system.
Medical Education Boosting Healthcare Delivery SystemThe task does not stop with revamping the curriculum for students. Teaching staff require periodic additional training as well to be conversant with the various aspects of education and imparting skills. Education does not stop once a student earns his/her degree. Professionals must take advantage of fellowship, certificate courses, workshops conducted periodically in order to enhance their knowledge in the chosen field of study.

The healthcare sector is one of the fastest growing in our country and quality education must be the driving-force behind the success of the industry. The increase in the ageing population, rising incomes of the middle class, occurrence of newer diseases, and the development of primary care facilities are expected to shape the industry in future. When dealing with human lives, it is imperative to ensure provision of the highest degree of professional expertise to benefit mankind. Medicine is considered a noble profession and it is the duty of the service providers to enrich their knowledge through continuing education to hone their skills for the betterment of the community.
A saying goes, “Good doctors understand responsibility better than privilege and practice accountability better than business.” We cannot think of having such a battery of doctors in the nation, if our education system is not adept to nurture such doctors. Sadly, the reality is just this. According to Deloitte 2015 study on medical tourism in India, there is a dearth of well qualified healthcare professionals in the country; one of the reasons for a high mortality rate in India.
Also, many young medical professionals are refusing to move into villages and remote areas where medical facilities are needed. It is estimated that India’s has merely 0.7 doctors and 1.5 nurses per 1,000 people; dramatically lower to the WHO average of 2.5 doctors and nurses per 1,000 people.
At the root of it allCurrently, India’s 398 medical colleges have failed to look after the healthcare needs of 1.2 billion people of the country. We can blame it on the archaic medical educational system. There is also a need to nurture emotional intelligence in medical practitioners. Patients need more care and compassion than merely technical medical know-how. Most medical practitioners are forced into cramming knowledge, to perform academically well. Another roadblock is the dismissal state of internship assessment and regular curricula development. This is the reason behind an evident fissure between requirements and availability of doctors, especially in remote areas of India.There are also other factors affecting the quality of Indian medical practitioners. There is mal-distribution of resources and unregulated growth in the private sector. Apart from this, faulty and disorganized admission procedures in private medical colleges (most of these are not recognized by any accredited agency) makes the educational journey questionable.Fixing the problemsUndeniably, health of a medical industry defines the health and well-being of a country. For that, every honest youngster dreams to be a part of one of the top 10 best medical colleges in the country. The list includes 1.All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Delhi
2.Christian Medical College (CMC), Vellore
3.Armed Forces Medical College (AFMC), Pune

7.Madras Medical College, Chennai
8.Grant Medical College, Mumbai
9.Kasturba Medical College (KMC), Manipal
10.King George Medical College, CMM Medical University, Lucknow
But for those who can’t make it to these, the only hope is the other private institutions. With selections based on a National Ability and Entrance Test, chances of securing a seat are bleak for the rest of the aspiring lot; and then curricula and governance at such colleges has also become questionable.
This means, a serious and significant alteration of the existing curricular at every level and for all medical institutions, whether well know or not. There is also a great need for less emphasis on the theory component and more on the practical usage of the same. Therefore, the medical educational system should cater to a horizontal and vertical integration of pre-clinical, para-clinical and clinical subjects that can assign more time to clinical teaching. With this will emerge a new generation of doctors that are more equipped with clinical competencies and a right attitude to serve the patient.
Problem solving- a mindsetThere is another interesting way to ensure that medical practitioners are not merely churned out as better crammers. Indian medical practitioners must be proficient in problem solving. For this, some medical learning institutions like Yenepoya University have introduced a self learning and interactive E-learning platform, especially for MBBS and BDS courses. They use inbuilt software called the ‘YENGAGE’. Through an open forum, students get to be continuously evaluated on their understanding and practical application.Progressive evaluationIn order to have a more robust workforce of Indian medical practitioners, there is an urgent need to revamp the existing evaluation system as well. There needs to be tectonic shift; from merely evaluating memory power to accessing objective application. The Art and Science colleges are now happy; making use of choice-based credit system and a continuous evaluation framework. The same can be applied for doctors and medical practitioners in the making.
